10 Insane Suicide Squad Moments The Sequel Won't Show You

Killer Croc really gets around.

With the current trailer we have for the next Suicide Squad film, one thing is sure: when this movie comes out, we're in for a well and truly wild time, if not hopefully the redemption of the big screen side of the series after the controversial reception to the first instalment.

However, even if the flick turns out to be the wall to wall gore and action festivity many of us are hoping for, there are still a ton of moments from the comics that are simply too wild to feature on the silver screen.

The series doesn't push boundaries in the way that The Boys or The Walking Dead does, but it certainly provides its fair share of weirdness. Combining such a strange assortment of characters into one team inevitably creates a whole bunch of moments that simply couldn't happen anywhere, the Squad has featured everything from exploding children to someone performing brain surgery on themselves.

The series can be weird, unsettling, and sometimes downright gross - but the brighter moments are only all the more endearing because they come from the same bunch of weirdos that turned your stomach only two minutes prior.

10. Exploding Robo-Children

Though the new Suicide Squad looks sure to bring countless wonderfully gory and gross deaths throughout its run, there are certain lines most of us hope it'll avoid - just to keep the lighter tone of the film.

One such line is the death of children, which makes for uncomfortable viewing every time - with the lone exception being the death of Joffrey in Game of Thrones.

So, when the Suicide Squad encounter what seem like innocent children, but what turn out to be "poppers" - genetically engineered to explode in dramatic fashion.

The concerning part is, while it is suggested they're maybe robots or otherwise creatures that aren't kids, they... sure seem to act and look like children, which makes the scene more than a little messed up.

As such, maybe it's worth keeping the explosions to grown adults (and grown sharks) instead of kids.
